Subaru Forester: Driving tips / Driving in foreign countries
When planning to use your vehicle in
another country:
- Confirm the availability of the correct
fuel. Refer to “Fuel requirements”.
- Comply with all regulations and requirements
of each country.
WARNING
Always maintain a safe driving
speed according to the road and
weather conditions in order to
avoid having an accident on a
sharp turn, during sudden braking
or under other similar conditions...
Other information:
Each wheel was correctly balanced
when your vehicle was new, but the
wheels will become unbalanced as
the tires become worn during use.
Wheel imbalance causes the steering
wheel to vibrate slightly at
certain vehicle speeds and detracts
from the vehicle’s straight-line stability...
WARNING
Adding weight to the vehicle’s roof
can adversely affect handling, braking,
and rollover resistance. The
vehicle must never be driven with a
total roof rail load in excess of 176
lbs (80 kg).
CAUTION
The roof rail load limit for stationary
vehicles (700 lbs (317 kg)) applies only when the vehicle is
parked and the load is evenly
distributed left/right and front/
rear and the roof crossbars and
roof tent are tightly secured to
the vehicle...
